ok i have a 2003 lancer oz and i bought an intake the other day and i want to install it my self. i need very good instructions on how to do that. if any one can help or point me in the right direction to find help i would be very appreciative. thanks

 

Which intake did you buy first off

 

Unbolt the intake system from the scoop to the throttle body, being especially careful with the MAS/MAF, put your intake in its place, voila!

Yeah...over simplified maybe, but you're probably over thinking it. It's really that simple.

EDIT: Movin' to the Newbie Forum.

 

not sure it is a short ram im pretty sure and it has no names on it anywhere.

 

If you've got a socket set and about an hour, you should be golden. A pic would help if you really need specific advise, but I swear to you it's very simple and you shouldn't have any difficulty unless the intake is booty or you're SERIOUSLY scared to work on things.

 

Take a couple of shots of your unit with a digital camera and post the pix to this thread, then PM me and I'll walk you through it.

 

ok i will try to do it my self and if i get lost i will let you know

 

Where did you purchase the SRI from?

 

Hope you get this in time. Go to www.knfilters.com Find the short ram intake they make, and then find the instructions. They have detailed info, with photos in a pdf file. Can't go wrong with that, it should be about the same.

Your welcome.

Good luck!

 

ok thanks i am probably going to do it this weekend i dont have to work on sat so i will be able to tinker a bit.

 

For the most part it's just a matter of finding the right socket to remove the bolts on the stock air box. You do need an impact tool of some sort to unhook the MAS. Unless you're very careful, I wouldn't suggest doing it with a regular socket wrench cuz it'll just snap the plastic housing. I did that with one of mine since I failed to follow the directions...

 

skuuuuurt ever think to do a ?

 

How if i already snap the plastic housing???, i used the regular socket wrench , so is there any way to get socket out and what kind impact tool i should use to unhook the MAS???
